6. In what year did he play in the movie 'Yanks'?

Answer: 1979

Richard's 5th movie, 'Yanks' premiered in 1979. I've never really seen that movie all the way through. Maybe one of these days, I'll get the opportunity to watch it in its entirety.

7. These movies, 'Days of Heaven', 'American Gigolo', and 'An Officer and a Gentleman', where originally created for what actor?

Answer: John Travolta

This is an interesting fact that I discovered when I was researching information for this quiz. Since I read that piece of information, I have been trying to picture John Travolta playing these parts, and I can't! It's just not working.

8. In 1999, Gere starred in what movie directed by Garry Marshall?

Answer: Runaway Bride

This movie was very good, although still not as awesome as 'Pretty Woman'. Richard and Julia are a great pair on screen.

9. What is the name of the movie that Richard starred in with Jodie Foster?

Answer: Sommersby

I have seen this movie a total of 5 times, and each time I catch things that I never really paid attention to. This is one of his best movies. If you haven't had the opportunity to see it, you really should rent it. It is excellent.

10. In 1996, Richard played a lawyer who helped an altar boy that was accused of murder, what is the name of the movie?

Answer: Primal Fear

Richard did an excellent job in this movie, although the actor who portrayed the altar boy really stole the whole show out from under him. I do believe Richard Gere should have been nominated for an Oscar for his performance.
